We have 5% and 6.5% acetic acid solutions and we need 200 ml of 6% acetic acid.
Set up two equations:
f means 5% and s means 6.5%
A) f + s = 200
B) .05f + .065s = (.06 * 200)
Multiplying equation A by -.05
A) -.05f  -.05s = -10
B) .05f + .065s = 12 then adding both equations:
.015s = 2
<span> <span> <span> we need 133.33</span> ml of 6.5% acetic acid and
66.67 ml of 5% acetic acid solution.
